While Kai was out. 

"And you had to come here like that? You scared me." Philip told his best friend who was looking at him with a very strict stare. He had no idea what had gotten into him but he didn't seem like his usual self. He was looking around, cautious and when he made sure no one was around by looking outside the door he closed it and rushed back inside. "What are you doing Mika?" Philip asked him, a confused expression on his face. He really wanted to throw a pillow on his face but Kai had fixed them up for him so he could be comfortable, he didn't want to ruin them. 

Mika was pacing back and forth, mumbling to himself and actually making his friend worry. He looked at the werewolf, his hazel eyes following his steps until he started to feel dizzy with his movement. 

"Hey! Dude, what the heck is going on?" he asked him, tilting his head to the side with a judgemental look on his face. 

Mika stopped walking and stood in front of him,  his dark eyes focused on him. He was still badly injured, bruised with cuts all over. All that because of that vampire, the man who had ruined Philip's life once before. 

While they were gone he couldn't help but keep thinking about it. Everything that he knew and kept a secret. He felt like he was putting Philip at risk. He had never liked Kai, his spoiled manner, his selfishness and that degrading look he gave everyone he didn't care about. Mika didn't know who he truly was, he didn't know why he did the things that he did back then and him not talking about it made him even more suspicious in his mind. The red head wished for his best friend to not get hurt again, to not die just because of this foolish fixation. Mates or not Kai was a vampire and that made everything wrong.

He had decided he was going to keep his mouth shut. He had told himself this relationship was none of his business and if Philip didn't want to hear him out he shouldn't worry over it. He was going to remember soon after all and everything would make perfect sense. Kai would be kicked out of their lives as fast as he walked in and things would return to normal. The problem was though after seeing him this way. Almost dead, wounded and exhausted he didn't know if he should let things continue. 

Philip was risking his life for him, putting everything on the line for a man who murdered him. That alone was going to crush him. That was why he decided it was time for the werewolf to know, no matter how harsh the truth was. Maybe he had actually been late in telling him, he wasn't expecting that his feelings would grow so fast though. He had been an idiot, underestimating the mate bond. 

"I've thought about it for a while, I know it's not my place but Philip you need to listen to me. You have to get away from Kai, never meet him again. Look at how you ended up, risking your life for him." Mika said and heard his friend sigh. 

"Not this again Mika. I thought I made myself clear. I want to be with Kai. I think I l…" 

"No." Mika stopped him, raising his arm. "You don't remember anything. You're not twenty yet but I do. I know everything that happened two hundred years ago and it involved you and that filthy bloodsucker you seem to want so much."

"What?" Philip asked, squeezing his eyes. "What are you talking about?" 

"Philip, you and Kai are mates." Mika announced, without filtering his words at all he revealed the secret he had been expecting all his life to hear. The man blinked a few times, processing the words he had just heard. 

"No, it's not possible he is…"

"A vampire. Yes he is but tell me do you think what you feel is something small? Have you ever seen anyone who hasn't found their mate act like that for someone else? You literally almost died for him! I know that you two are mates, I saw it, I saw you meet and fall in love. I have seen it all with my own eyes." he told his friend. 

Philip didn't know how to feel. Mika's words were not making any sense. If Kai and him were truly mates why was he asking him to get away from him?

"I don't understand. If he is my mate why would you want me to leave him. It doesn't make any sense. The things you're telling me. Kai…he…is my mate?" he repeated, still shocked with the revelation. His heart raced, the beast inside him waking up and his thoughts suddenly got occupied by his face. Kai, Kai…so it was him. It wasn't reasonable. A vampire, the one he was destined to live with for the rest of his life but surprisingly Philip, he was not upset. A small smile lingered on his lips. "My mate." he whispered, getting to feel happy. So his emotions, this storm inside of him was not wrong. The desire he felt, the warmth in his chest, everything…he was right. Kai was special, he was special to him. 

"Don't smile." Mika said, stopping his dreaming. "There are some things you need to know. Then you will understand why being with Kai is wrong. It will kill you."

"Is it because he is a vampire because if that's the reason then I…"

"No, just hear me out. Please, I am begging you. I just want you safe." Mika said, his eyes pleading for Philip to hear him out. 

"Fine, fine…" Philip retreated, seeing the worry plastered on his friend's face. "Tell me." 

"About two hundred years ago. You and I were in a pack called Red Fangs. It was one of the strongest packs at the time and we once more were Wolf Warriors. One day a confrontation with the royal family happened and we had to travel to BloodBound. There we had to stay for a long time, meeting after meeting, agreement after agreement just to avoid a war and manage to sign a treaty. Back then, you were also close to turning twenty, you didn't know yet who your mate was. You were a lot stricter back then but well times were different. The eighteen hundreds were not a good era. Anyways, in BloodBound you met Kai. It was utter chaos, every day you talked about how you wanted to punch him and how he was always getting on your nerves with that attitude of his, you didn't like him, at all, until your birthday came. You fell in love with him, went after him but still he wouldn't even spare you a glance. After many tries you managed to make him feel the same way and everything was rosy. You spent some time happy, trying to find out how you were going to keep going even after we left BloodBound, only a few people knew about you. But without a reason Kai one day disappeared, you searched for him but there were no signs. Then…you disappeared too. One night I was out, looking for you two, I thought you might had eloped and told myself I would stop looking after that night but I did find you. It was raining. Deep into the night and you two were fighting. Kai looked like a mess, as if he had been through hell and you, you were trying to protect yourself. In the end he….he killed you Philip. As if you meant nothing he ripped your heart and disappeared. No one knows what happened, his family covered everything up. He murdered you, in cold blooded."

Philip had never fallen in love before, not even with himself. He had always waited to give everything he got to that one person, to the one he was destined to be with. When he heard Kai was the one his heart fluttered, excited and relieved. He was lucky, so incredibly lucky, he had told himself. All that until he heard Mika. As his story went on, as he reached the end his heart withered like a forgotten flower in the corner of the room. Was that really his story? Was his love just a poison, waiting to kill him? After everything he had felt, after he had decided to give himself to him, risk his life for him the truth was that it was meaningless? His heart cracked, like expensive porcelain, the delicate designs being ruined one by one as he tried not to cry. 

"Get me out of here" He told Mika, his voice shaking. "Please.." he begged.
